IMFAR WELCOME
Welcome to the 14th Annual IMFAR, and to Salt Lake City! The 2015 Scientific Program has arisen to match the
heights of the surrounding Wasatch and Oquirrh mountain ranges.
Over 1,400 abstracts were submitted for this year’s IMFAR. With the leadership of Sally Ozonoff and
Jacki Crawley, our Scientific Program Committee has assembled an outstanding array of keynote addresses,
breakouts with panel, oral and poster sessions, Special Interest Groups, and special luncheon events for
students and stakeholders.
We can be especially proud of our 2015 awardees for outstanding performances in the categories of Lifetime
Achievement, Advocate, Slifka/Ritvo Innovation, Young Investigator, and Dissertation.
My thanks go to the INSAR Board, Scientific Program Committee, and the abstract reviewers who diligently
worked to uphold our high standards for presentations. I would also like to express my gratitude to Jennifer Gentry
and Joe Dymek, who once again provided expert assistance in organizing the process and logistics that support
IMFAR.
Finally, I want to also recognize the Salt Lake IMFAR Preconference planning committee who contributed to the
outstanding day long workshop that shared the IMFAR experts with the autism community of Utah and surrounding
states. Kristina Cottle, Anne Asman, Terisa Gabrielsen, Patrick Leytham, Paul Carbone, and Tia Korologos led
our planning efforts and deserve recognition for their outstanding work. Other members of the Utah planning
committee include:
Jessica Bowman
Paul Carbone
Teresa Cardon
Julia Connelly
Aaron Fischer
Thomas S. Higbee
Laura G. Holmes
Julia Hood
Gary Knapp
Stacy S. Manwaring
Carma Mordecai
Rob O. O’Neill
Rebecca Annette Parker
Harper Randall
Allison Sampson
Cheryl C. Smith
Jared Stewart
Clain S. Udy
Scott D. Wright
On behalf of those listed above, and many others who contributed to this community effort, we hope you enjoy our
region and the IMFAR experience.

IMFAR Meeting Chair
IMFAR is the Annual Meeting of the International Society for Autism Research (INSAR).

SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM
Topics again spanned the full range of autism research, including diagnostic, behavioral and intellectual
assessment, social behavior and social cognition, communication and language, cognition and attention, repetitive
behaviors and interests, early development, adult outcome, behavioral and pharmacological interventions across
the lifespan, brain structure and function, genetics, animal models, molecular biology, comorbid syndromes,
epidemiology, services, family issues, new technologies, and perspectives across cultures and countries.
WELCOME
Welcome to the 14th annual International Meeting for Autism Research (IMFAR) in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. It is
our privilege and great pleasure to share the Scientific Program with you. The wealth of fascinating, high quality
abstracts for panels, oral sessions and posters made our job both difficult and rewarding. The 1,442 submissions
this year were rated by dedicated reviewers, topic chairs, and members of the Program Committee, resulting in
1,225 acceptances. Presenters come from over 40 countries across the globe.
Several innovations were successfully incorporated into the 2015 program. 1) New this year are Keynote Panels.
Our Keynote Lecturers, Richard Grinker, Sally Rogers and Jeremy Veenstra-VanderWeele, each generously agreed
to assemble a Keynote Panel Session of outstanding talks with high relevance to the subjects of their own lecture.
Keynote Panels will immediately follow each corresponding morning Keynote presentation. These topical panels
are designed to encourage in-depth discussion of the issues raised by our renowned speakers, and to contribute
a diversity of viewpoints. 2) This year, the Program Committee revived an earlier IMFAR format, which assembles
oral sessions into four talks instead of eight, to maximize the representation of topics across the limited number
of oral sessions. All 20 submission topics thus have an oral session this year. 3) Continuing this year are the
popular evening poster sessions with light hors-d’oeuvres, and lunchtime poster sessions with food kiosks nearby,
designed to enhance opportunities for scientific interactions in more relaxed, social settings. 4) The online
submission software now provides check boxes to a) permit unaccepted panel abstracts to be routinely considered
for oral sessions and poster presentations, b) state whether the authors are or are not willing to present their
findings in poster format if there is not an opportunity to give a talk, and c) identify early career investigators in
panel proposals, to ensure the inclusion of the next generation of autism researchers in prestigious IMFAR panel
sessions. We look forward to your feedback on each of these modifications.
Our heartfelt gratitude is expressed to each member of the Program Committee and to each Topic Review
Chair (listed on page 16). Their hard work, spanning many months, is reflected throughout this scientific
program.INSAR President Francesca Happé, INSAR Board members, and INSAR Board-IMFAR Liaison Laura Klinger
contributed tremendously, valuable input to substantive decisions at each phase of program development. Our
wonderful Jennifer Gentry, INSAR Administrative Director, provided a crash course in institutional memory from
earlier IMFAR conferences, generating timetables and assembling abstract spreadsheets for review decisions,
along with Josh Andrews who implemented each stage in the submission and acceptance process through the
Confex software system. Personal thanks are extended to everyone involved in the hard work of organizing the
scientific program for another successful IMFAR in 2015.
We are honored to have the opportunity to showcase the latest exciting findings in autism research, and hope
that the work presented during our three days in beautiful Salt Lake City will improve the quality of life for people
on the autism spectrum and their families.

PRESIDENT’S WELCOME
It is really an honor and a pleasure to welcome you to Salt Lake City for IMFAR 2015! I look forward to learning a
lot, as ever, from the wonderful community of autism researchers gathering for this meeting.
There are many people to thank for their hard work in making IMFAR 2015 a success. This beautiful location
was chosen by Past-President, Helen Tager-Flusberg, on whom I have relied enormously for wisdom and guidance
throughout my three years as President-Elect and then President. Our IMFAR Meeting Chair, Bill McMahon, has
been responsible for the fantastic pre-IMFAR stakeholder conference, our opening reception, and giving IMFAR
2015 a local flavor. Our IMFAR Scientific Program Chairs, Sally Ozonoff and Jacki Crawley, have done a magnificent
job of deciding on keynotes and the scientific content of the program, as well as organizing and overseeing the
hard work of abstract review. Jennifer Gentry and her colleagues from Association Resources are responsible for
the smooth running of INSAR all year and work especially hard around IMFAR; and Joe Dymek and colleagues from
Conference Direct do an exceptional job of ensuring our conference runs without hitches. I would also like to thank
all the INSAR Committee Chairs and members, the volunteers who work so hard all year round to further the aims
of our Society, to support and advance research for the benefit of those with autism, their families, carers and
friends.
This is my second and last IMFAR as President of INSAR. At the end of the INSAR Business meeting on Saturday,
I will hand over the gavel (metaphorically and literally!) to Geri Dawson, your new President. I know she will lead
INSAR in new and exciting directions, and I hope she enjoys the role as much as I have. I’m delighted that I’ll be
staying on the Board of INSAR as Past-President for two further years, with special responsibility for INSAR’s
‘global reach’ mission.
During this Board’s two-year term we have really tried to make INSAR your International society, welcoming autism
researchers from all over the world, and advancing science for people with autism and their families globally. We
have introduced very low rates for INSAR membership and IMFAR registration for people from low and middle
income countries. We have instigated the first ‘Regional-IMFAR’, which will take place later this year in Shanghai
(November 6-8th, 2015). At present, there are many parts of the world where it isn’t possible to hold IMFAR; it
would not be financially viable, or it would be inaccessible to most of our student membership. Regional-IMFAR is
our attempt to bring many of the aims and benefits of IMFAR to those parts of the world, through partnership
with local researchers and stakeholders, with more flexibility to address the issues most relevant in that place
at the current time. I am most grateful to Andy Shih, of Autism Speaks, for facilitating this first Regional-IMFAR;
I hope it will be a huge success and that we can hold Regional-IMFARs in future years in India, Africa, South
America, and many other places. In my remaining two years on the Board I also hope to create an INSAR-led online
repository of global, open-access autism research tools.
In light of INSAR’s global mission, I am particularly delighted that the INSAR Advocate Award for 2015 goes to
Merry Barua, who has worked tirelessly as a parent and autism advocate, almost single-handedly building the
autism community in India. You won’t want to miss her acceptance speech, or that of the INSAR 2015 Lifetime
Achievement Award winner, Laura Schreibman, whose fundamental work on behavioral interventions will be known
to everyone here. This year our Awards Ceremony will also feature short presentations by our Dissertation Award
winners, reflecting the importance INSAR places on our student, post-doc and early career members.
Lastly, I would like to thank the outgoing INSAR Board and welcome the three new Board members. Connie Kasari,
Laura Grofer Klinger, Helen Tager-Flusberg, James McPartland, David Mandell and Tony Bailey have truly been a joy
to work with; not only experts in their fields, wise and thoughtful, but kind, collegiate, funny and infinitively patient
with my fumbling efforts to lead the Board. I will miss working with them, and am delighted that Jamie stays on
with me as Past-Treasurer to represent their ideas and aims within the new INSAR Board. I am very pleased to
welcome the newly elected Board members: Kasia Chawarska as Secretary, Raphael Bernier as Treasurer, and
Craig Newschaffer as Vice-President. David Amaral also joins the Board as the newly appointed Editor of our
journal, Autism Research. It is wonderful that we have such talented scientists joining the Board, who will bring
fresh ideas, energy and passion to INSAR’s missions.
If you have ideas about how INSAR can better pursue the aims of the autism research community, or how IMFAR
could better meet the needs of autism researchers, please come and tell me during the meeting. We are your
international society and your concerns shape our mission and aims. Thank you for the opportunity to be part of
the INSAR leadership – and I wish you all a really enjoyable and productive meeting.

IMFAR 2015 KEYNOTE SPEAKERS
Roy Richard Grinker, Ph.D.
Roy Richard Grinker is Professor and Chair of Anthropology, and Director of the Institute for Ethnographic Research,
at the George Washington University. He is Editor-in-Chief of Anthropological Quarterly. Grinker was born and raised
in Chicago. He graduated from Grinnell College in 1983 and received his Ph.D. in Social Anthropology at Harvard
University in 1989. Dr. Grinker has published books and articles on a range of topics such as ethnicity, north-south
Korean relations, and autism. His work on autism includes a total population study of autism prevalence in Ilsan, South
Korea and qualitative research on approaches to early identification and intervention in Korea, the U.S., India, and
South Africa. Grinker is the author of Unstrange Minds: Remapping the World of Autism (Basic Books, 2007). The book
is both an account of the cultural factors underlying changes in autism prevalence, and his own experiences raising a
daughter with autism. Unstrange Minds received the KEN award from the National Alliance on Mental Illness, was a
finalist for the American Anthropological Asssociation’s Victor Turner Prize for Ethnographic Writing, and was selected
by Library Journal as one of the “30 Best Books of 2007.”
Sally J. Rogers, Ph.D.
Sally J. Rogers is a developmental psychologist, Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, and Director of
Training and Mentoring at the MIND Institute, University of California Davis. She is involved at the international level
in major clinical and research activities involving autism. She has received many awards for her teaching, research,
and clinical contributions. She has published over 200 papers, chapters, and books on topics including cognitive
development in children with profound mental retardation, cognitive and social development of blind infants,
symptoms of toddlers with Fragile X Syndrome, as well as numerous papers on clinical and developmental aspects of
autism. She has made seminal contributions to the study of imitation in autism research. Her current research focuses
on developing effective interventions for infants and toddlers with autism that families and professionals can deliver.
In addition to research, she is also a clinician, providing evaluation, treatment, and consultation to infants, children
and adults with autism and their families. The intervention model that she developed with Geri Dawson and other
colleagues – the Early Start Denver Model – is internationally known and recognized by Time.com and Autism Speaks
as one of the 10 main medical breakthroughs of 2012.
Jeremy Veenstra-VanderWeele, M.D.
Dr. Veenstra-VanderWeele is a child and adolescent psychiatrist who uses molecular and translational neuroscience
research tools in the pursuit of new treatments for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and pediatric obsessive-compulsive
disorder (OCD). As a predoctoral fellow, medical student, and resident, he trained in human molecular genetics in the
laboratory of Edwin H. Cook at the University of Chicago. He expanded his research experience with a post doctoral
research fellowship in molecular neuroscience with Randy Blakely and Jim Sutcliffe at Vanderbilt University, with the
goal to develop mouse models of social dysfunction and repetitive behavior. Currently, his molecular lab focuses on
the serotonin, oxytocin and glutamate systems in genetic mouse models related to ASD and OCD. While developing
a molecular neuroscience research program, he also built a clinical/translational research program to study new
treatments for ASD and Fragile X Syndrome. He moved both arms of his research program to Columbia University
in 2014 to continue to pursue novel treatments for children with these challenging conditions.

IMFAR 2015 AWARDEES
INSAR Lifetime Achievement Award
Laura Schreibman, Ph.D.
Laura Schreibman, Ph.D., is director and
principal investigator of the Autism Intervention
Research Program at the University of California
at San Diego. She is also a Distinguished
Professor Emeritus of Psychology, and Research
Professor at the University of California, San
Diego, where she has been on the faculty since 1984. She has been
a licensed psychologist in the State of California since 1977. She
earned her Ph.D. in 1972 at the University of California, Los Angeles,
where she focused on the field of behavior analysis and treatment
of childhood autism. Her research since her degree has continued in
the same vein where she has conducted both basic research on the
nature of ASD and applied research on effective interventions. She is
co-developer of Pivotal Response Training, one of the first naturalistic
treatment approaches for individuals with autism. Her most recent
research interests have focused on the development and dissemination
of naturalistic developmental behavioral intervention (NDBI) strategies,
the development of individualized treatment protocols, translation
of empirically based treatments into community settings, analysis of
language and attentional deficits, generalization of behavior change,
parent training, and issues of assessment. She is an author of four
books and more than 160 research reports, articles, and book
chapters. The Science and Fiction of Autism, published in 2005 by
Harvard University Press, is her third book.
INSAR Advocate Award
This award honors community members/advocates who have
influenced the ability to carry out autism research.
Merry Barua
Merry Barua is Director, Action for Autism India,
National Centre for Autism. She is an activist,
educator, and a parent to a son with autism.
Merry started the autism movement in India when
lack of information and misconceptions about
this condition abounded. With little support from
society or authorities of the time, she set about changing the scenario
in awareness, diagnostics, education, human resources development,
and policy, among others. Merry writes, teaches, lobbies, trains,
sensitizes, counsels, and advocates. Her focus on ‘spreading the word’
and enabling individuals with autism and their families to empower
themselves, has led to a growth in services and the formation of
empowered parent groups, and in particular of parent-driven services.
Merry’s vision of an inclusive society looks not merely at individuals
with social and communication challenges, but at all those who do not
fit into society’s judgmental norms. Merry is an Ashoka Fellow.
AWARDEES
The Lifetime Achievement Award is given annually by the Executive
Board of the International Society for Autism Research. This award
acknowledges an individual who has made significant fundamental
contributions to research on autism spectrum disorders that have had
a lasting impact on the field. The focus of the awardee’s research can
be in any discipline.
Bios provided by recipients
Slifka/Ritvo Innovation in Autism Research Award
Dissertation Awards
The Alan B. Slifka Foundation promotes innovative research on
autism spectrum disorders conducted by junior investigators. The
objective of the award is to lead to new treatments and improvements
in the quality of life of individuals with autism. The Foundation
provides one $25,000 (for one year) research award to an INSAR
member. The award may support clinical research (diagnosis
or treatment of autism or educational efforts) or basic research
(epidemiology, genetics, neuroscience, immunology etc). The goal
of the Slifka/Ritvo Award is to support promising junior investigators
to pursue excellent research for which they do not have funding and
are not likely to get funding readily. The recipient of the Slifka/Ritvo
Award will be recognized at the Awards Ceremony at IMFAR.
Dissertation Awards are given annually to active scientists and
clinicians in training in all areas of autism research. Awards are for
the best basic science dissertation and for the best clinical/behavioral
dissertation in autism accepted by the university in the year 2014.
These awards provide a stipend of $1,500 each.

100 - Who Owns Autism? Exceptionalism,
Stigma, and Stakeholders
9:00 AM - 10:00 AM - Grand Ballroom
Speaker: Roy Richard Grinker, George Washington University,
Washington, DC
This presentation focuses on critical themes and challenges in the cultural
study of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). First, in clinical, research, and
advocacy settings ASD has emerged as a singular and powerful construct
that encompasses an increasing number of heterogeneous phenomena.
What forces made this category possible? How did it become both a
valid and unstable construct? Second, the growth of genetic and other
biomedical perspectives on ASD risks reducing ASD to biology alone,
and, as a consequence, masking the fact that scientific representations
express cultural values about diversity and disability. Difference constructed
on the molecular level is still difference, no less stigmatizing and socially
consequential because of its biological source (and perhaps even more
so). How can we integrate both the biological and sociocultural aspects of
ASD into research? Third, ASD is now, in some respects, a commodity that
circulates in an industry of “stakeholders,” such as therapists, producers of
high-cost diagnostic tools, and advocacy organizations. Indeed, as health
professionals are discovering in low- and middle-income countries, few
diagnostic categories cost as much as ASD. How does the economy of ASD
influence the science of ASD?
Keynote Panel Session
101 - Autism and Society: Taking Stock of
the History and Meaning of Autism Research
10:30 AM - 12:30 PM - Grand Ballroom B
Session Chair: Roy Richard Grinker, George Washington University,
Washington, DC
Current debates about the present and future of autism research generally
focus on scientific discovery and are fitted into the framework of the scientific
method. This panel departs from convention to “take stock” of the field, and
explore autism research as a system of knowledge and practices in social,
historical, and economic context. The questions at the core of this panel
concern the various and sometimes contradictory aspects of the field of
autism research: How has the definition of autism changed over time for
a range of individuals, communities, and audiences, and what factors led
to those changes? What kinds of authority (e.g., institutional, bureaucratic,
academic, legislative, familial) have structured, and been structured by,
scientific representations of autism? Is autism a disease, a disability, or an
aspect of a ‘normal’ range of human variation? Is autism singular, or do the
boundaries and definitions of the category constrain the ability of researchers
and clinicians to address the dimensions of autism as outcomes of a
common set of developmental pathways shared by all humans? Speakers
from the fields of anthropology, disability rights, linguistics, and epidemiology
will employ historical, ethnographic, philosophical, and public health
perspectives to explain the dramatic changes in the field of autism research
over the past several decades and outline possibilities for the future.

102 - An Update on Vocal Complexity in Infants
and Children with ASD
10:30 AM - 12:30 PM - Grand Ballroom A
Session Chair: T. Woynaroski, Hearing and Speech Sciences,
Vanderbilt University, Thompsons Stn, TN
Research spanning several decades has demonstrated that vocalizations
differentiate young children with ASD from their typically developing peers
and predict spoken language and other developmental outcomes in ASD.
This panel presents recent findings from several different research groups
on vocalization in infants and children with ASD. We open with a presentation that: a) highlights several ways in which the vocalizations of children
with ASD differ from their typically developing peers, b) examines associations between these aspects of vocal development and other key domains
of deficit in ASD, and c) explores how these differences in vocal development
and other domains relate to later cognitive and communication outcomes in
ASD. The subsequent series of talks draws on a large database from the
LENA Research Foundation, as well as an independent sample of children
with ASD who are in early stages of language development, to test the
stability and/or validity of several current options for automated analysis of
child vocalizations. Implications of the findings for research and clinical
practice will be discussed.

103 - Approaches to Examining and Identifying Neural
Biomarkers for Autism: Progress and Challenges
10:30 AM - 12:30 PM - Grand Ballroom C
Session Chair: J. McCleery, Center for Autism Research, Children’s
Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA
Discussant: T. P. Roberts, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia,
Philadelphia, PA
Clinicians involved in treating heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, are
all able to utilize a number of scientifically validated biomarkers to better
understand the origin and nature of their patients’ diseases, and to
initiate tailored interventions. One of the greatest current challenges to
understanding and treating autism and other psychiatric conditions is the
relative absence of such biomarkers. The current panel presents four
research programs involving differing approaches to the search for brainbased biomarkers for autism spectrum disorders. Bartley and colleagues
present data utilizing arterial spin labelling to establish voxel-based
reliability of activity across 10 weeks in a brief biomarker assessment;
Stefanidou and colleagues present evidence that event-related potentials
biomarkers for core social processing atypicalities may differ across
development and/or intellectual ability levels in autism; Hudac and colleagues
describe evidence for a significant role of genetic variability in defining
an electroencephalography-based biomarker for social processing within
individuals diagnosed with autism; finally, Roberts and colleagues describe
a robust, multi-modal set of biomarkers for variability in language-related
functioning in individuals with autism. Together, these presentations describe
both challenges and successes in the field’s application of cutting edge
neuroimaging procedures and approaches to the identification of meaningful,
clinically-relevant biomarkers for individuals with autism.

104 - Attending to Attention Among Persons
with Autism Spectrum Disorder: Perspectives on
Strengths, Weaknesses, and Goodness-of-Fit
10:30 AM - 12:30 PM - Grand Ballroom D
Session Chair: O. Landry, La Trobe University, Bendigo, Australia
Throughout the lifespan, where and how visual attention is allocated affects
what we learn about the world, how we interact with others, and how we
plan goal-directed behaviors. Several “atypicalities” in visual attention are
cited among persons with ASD. Under some circumstances, such as visual
search, this atypicality takes the form of enhanced performance. In other
circumstances, such as attentional disengagement, the abnormality is
characterized as impairment. But in many other aspects of visual attention,
the differences that emerge between individuals with autism can simply
be identified as superior or inferior. For example, the processes involved
in the modulation of attentional focus, such as needed under varying
conditions of perceptual load or when the task necessitates efficient
attending to target information in dynamic complex environments, can involve
diminished performance in one circumstance and enhanced performance
on another. Across all these permutations of strengths and weaknesses,
the understanding of the subtle nuances of attentional processing provides
considerable insight into context-specific cognitive and social styles and
level of performance of persons with ASD. In this panel, we will explore the
nuances of visual attention of persons with ASD within the frameworks of
both strength and weakness within the demands of the environment.

105 - Pivotal Response Treatment: Novel Intervention
Models to Optimize Outcome
10:30 AM - 12:30 PM - Grand Salon
Session Chair: A. Y. Hardan, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences,
Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, CA
Discussant: L. Schreibman, University of California, San Diego,
La Jolla, CA
This panel will review new research into state-of-the-art models for
disseminating evidence-based Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT) for
ASD across key contexts and stakeholders. The first presentation examines
results of a large randomized controlled trial of PRT Group (PRTG) and
reviews data on the effects of group parent education on child language and
parenting stress and empowerment. The second talk introduces the novel
Classroom PRT (CPRT) approach for training teachers and will present
preliminary teacher outcomes and child characteristics from large-scale
application of CPRT in school settings. The third presentation reviews
preliminary data on the effects of brief individually-administered PRT on
child language use, as well as neurophysiological function measured
with EEG for a small subsample. Finally, our fourth panelist will discuss a
package treatment model which combines both parent training and cliniciandelivered intervention in home settings to maximize treatment effects and
data supporting this model will be shared. Overall, this panel offers a review
of innovative research in intervention models of PRT to optimize outcome
across multiple universities, documenting novel approaches for community
implementation of evidence-based motivational treatment practices. We
seek to stimulate further research interest in the development of highquality autism interventions and in effective strategies for wide-spread
dissemination.

Without getting this right, the core of the Precision Medicine agenda—linking
data to specific patients/subjects—is at risk. As an example, the emerging
use of electronic health record systems and other large clinical databases
that allow the data acquired during the course of care to be used to
identify distinct subpopulations, clinical trajectories, and pathophysiological
substructures of ASD.

and imaging; b) measurement groups including international collaborations
to review existing instruments and those in progress; c) clinical treatment
groups including both behavioral and medication treatments. Smaller groups
will meet for a short time to identify priorities and mechanisms for future collaboration then present findings to the whole group for discussion. Graduate
student Alana McVey will work as a liaison for matching student and group
member interests within the SIG and discuss issues and career opportunities
in this area.

Room: Grand Salon
Session Chairs: Heather Volk and Gayle Windham
FRIDAY – AM
Analysis of large-scale systems of biomedical data provides a perspective on
neuropsychiatric disease that may be otherwise elusive. An analysis of largescale systems of data from autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and of ASD
research as an exemplar of what might be achieved from study of such data.
Those with experience in creating large data sets from multiple,
heterogeneous sources with wide heterogeneity in both the ‘big’ness of the
data in bandwidth/storage as well as complexity will recognize that finding
the right data and matching it up correctly to the right individual across these
sources is so fraught with difficulty that it has contributed to the substantive
shortfall if not outright failure of both large scale national population-scale
efforts and local single institution/single population studies. As a result there
is no widely available implementation of a framework to support a clinical
information commons. We have had some success at the national and
international multi-institutional level.
The goal of the 2015 SIG is continue work to develop practice parameters
and to improve ways to evaluate minimally verbal individuals (MVI) in the
areas of: characterization, intervention, developmental considerations and
underserved populations. Leaders will organize project teams with mentors
partnered with junior faculty and student members.
The objectives for 2015 build on the discussions and objectives outlined by
each workgroup at the last meeting:
• Each working group leader will provide a brief update
of discussion and activities since IMFAR 2014
• Depending on state of the literature for each workgroup’s
topic, they will:
• Work on developing proposals for research projects that
will address the critical information gaps
• Work on outlining and drafting one or two specific
practice parameters
Following this year’s SIG, our aim would be for groups to submit the research
proposals for funding, or publish an article on information gaps or the
practice parameter as applicable.
While increasingly accepted that ASD arises from complex interactions
of genetic and environmental factors (GxE), investigations of joint effects
and evaluation of underlying mechanisms are limited. The goal of this
SIG is to bring together researchers from multiple disciplines to overcome
barriers and brainstorm strategies to facilitate collaboration and research
progress in this complex field. To identify and address challenges in this
area, the 2015 session will use relevant materials from GxE workshops
held to address other diseases and discuss how to apply them to ASD,
establishing a common language for interdisciplinary collaboration. Further,
we will briefly review existing evidence for GxE in autism etiology through
short presentations from experts with experience in structural and functional
genetic data, epigenetics, and environmental epidemiology to be followed by
group discussion, feedback, and networking.

Keynote Address
131 - Reflections on 50 years of ASD Early
Intervention Science
Speaker: Sally J. Rogers, University of California at Davis,
Sacramento, CA
In May of 1965, Life Magazine published a cover story on Ivar Lovaas’s
UCLA autism intervention study, bringing autism and the challenges it
creates for children and families into the public eye for the first time. Fifty
years later, early autism intervention is the topic of lawsuits, protests,
and hope. The powerful effects of high quality intensive early intervention
delivered in the first few years of life provide new insights into the multiple
mechanisms underlying developmental and behavioral impairments
associated with early ASD. This keynote will (1) describe and illustrate
the kinds of gains that high quality intervention can facilitate, (2) identify
treatment elements common to the most successful approaches, highlighting
research from the Early Start Denver Model (Dawson and Rogers 2010), and
(3) consider varying ways of conceptualizing treatment response.
132 - Responses to Early Intervention and
Mechanisms of Change
Session Chair: Sally J. Rogers, University of California at Davis,
Sacramento, CA
Discussant: C. A. Nelson, Harvard University Boston Children’s
Hospital, Boston, MA
New studies of early intervention effects in ASD are being published
monthly, with varying designs, methods, measures, and outcomes. There
is growing acceptance of the ideas that (1) individual outcomes in autism
reflect transactional processes among environmental and biological variables
throughout life and (2) that developmental processes and rates may be
particularly malleable in early childhood. There is increasing impetus among
families and care professionals for early intervention research findings to
be incorporated into an increased range, sophistication, and availability
of services to young children and their families. However, this impetus is
tempered by concerns about overemphasis on early childhood services,
unreliability of early symptoms, difficulties with assessment processes,
and lack of community services for early identification, diagnosis, and
treatment. In order to guide public services and clinical practice, early
intervention science must move more deeply into two areas (among many):
(1) mechanisms by which specific intervention practices may be changing
children’s developmental trajectories or rates, (2) individual or subgroup
patterns of response to specific interventions, and (3) variables that mediate
and moderate intervention response. This international panel brings together
a distinguished group of scientists involved in studying the processes and
mechanisms involved in response to early interventions.

Clinical Studies

Autism spectrum disorders are one of the most common and severe
neurodevelopmental disorders yet effective treatments for the core symptoms
are still lacking. This is mainly due to a) the high clinical, etiological and
genetic heterogeneity between affected individuals, b) restricted knowledge
of the underpinning pathophysiological mechanism(s), and c) the absence
of reliable biomarkers to identify more biologically homogeneous subgroups.
This panel will present examples of the integrated translational approach
adopted in EU-AIMS, a large-scale public-private partnership, to identify
biomarkers and new treatment targets for ASD. First, we combine patientderived pluripotent stem cells (Price) and animal models (Steckler) of
monogenic forms of ASD to understand pathophysiological mechanisms.
Here, we focus on genes affecting synapse development and function
(SHANKs, neurexins, neuroligins) and their downstream effects on excitatoryinhibitory balance and brain connectivity. Next, we translate this to patients
using methods such as MRS. Preliminary findings from a pharmacological
study validate the Glutamate/ GABA system as a tractable treatment target.
Finally, we carry out linked large-scale clinical studies spanning children and
adults with ASD and patients with specific synaptic gene deficits to identify
biomarkers (including markers of E/I imbalances) for patient stratification that
can be used in future clinical trials.

There is a growing literature documenting the social, employment, and
mental health difficulties faced by adults with ASD. With the increasing rates
of ASD diagnoses, the number of individuals with ASD entering adulthood
each year will double over the next 6 years. While we know that employment
rates are extremely low, little research has examined what factors are related
to positive adult outcome. The talks in this panel describe the results of four
separate large-scale studies focused on identifying factors that affect adult
outcome. The presentations incorporate a range of methodologies including
a long term follow up study from childhood, two prospective studies from
adolescence into adulthood, and a high school employment intervention
program. Further, the presentations incorporate a variety of adult outcome
measures including employment, adaptive behavior, social connectedness,
mental health, motor skills, and quality of life. Across these studies, the
importance of several childhood and adolescent factors emerges and
potential intervention targets are identified. Each presentation will address
implications for promoting positive adult outcomes.

135 - From Genomic Discovery to Genetically
Defined Autism Subtypes
Session Chair: B. J. O’Roak, Oregon Health & Science University,
Portland, OR
Discovering the genetic basis of idiopathic autism spectrum disorder has
been challenging. Recently, new genomic approaches leveraging exome
sequencing have identified large numbers of new candidate genes based on
new or “de novo” mutations in families with a single affected child, so called
simplex families. Even with the likelihood of hundreds of genes involved,
many genes are now moving beyond candidates to bona fide risk factors
for autism. Detailed analysis of genetically defined autism subtypes may
revolutionize our understanding of the disorder and provide significant targets
for interventions. In this session, the results of the complete sequencing of
the Simons Simplex Collection, ~2,500 families will be presented. The roles
of different mutation types and classes of genes will be addressed, as well
as how roles may differ in boys and girls with autism. We will also explore
how novel biomolecular modules relevant to autism are being discovered
using emerging data from the developing brain and new computational
approaches. These potentially link many risk genes together into common
pathways. Finally, the session will end with detailed discussions of two new
genetically defined autism subtypes, unexpected clinical associations, and
rationale for moving forward with this genotype first approach.

136 - Co-Occurring Psychiatric Disorders and
the Lifecourse in ASD: Clinical and
Epidemiological Perspectives
Session Chair: C. M. Kerns, Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA
Discussant: B. Lee, Drexel University School of Public Health,
Philadelphia, PA
There is a growing body of evidence that individuals with autism spectrum
disorder (ASD) frequently experience co-occurring psychiatric symptoms.
This scientific panel integrates clinical and epidemiological perspectives
to examine the conceptualization, measurement, and negative outcomes
of this co-occurrence. Our first talk highlights key insights regarding the
conceptualization of psychiatric syndromes in ASD derived from clinical
evaluations of several thousand children and adolescents with ASD, other
psychiatric syndromes and typical development. Talk 2 synthesizes the
literature on comorbid psychopathology in ASD, examining how different
measurement approaches may influence prevalence estimates. Using
national data, talks 2 and 3 then examine the relationship of co-occurring
psychiatric symptoms in ASD to life course outcomes, in particular adverse
childhood experiences and criminality. The overarching goal of this panel will
be to consider the implications of co-occurring psychiatric syndromes in ASD
to epidemiologic research, clinical practice and public health – that is,
to consider how our conceptualization of psychiatric co-occurrence may
inform etiological models, measurement and treatment development as well
as our ability to address the real-word service needs of individuals with ASD.

United Kingdom
Discussant: K. Greaves-Lord, Yulius Autisme Expertisecentrum,

Adolescence can be a challenging period for individuals with autism spectrum
disorder (ASD), because of the physical, emotional and social changes that
occur simultaneously. The change from primary to secondary education
entails a large environmental change in location, daily schedule, and social
context. Therefore, guidance in this transition is important. It is also crucial to
foster a save relation with the teachers, to enhance the learning environment
and facilitate optimal academic achievement. In order to have positive peer
interactions and develop and maintain friendships, social skills become
increasingly important. Training social skills, while involving the parents who
can additionally coach these skills in the home and community environment,
is therefore also important. Finally, due to hormonal changes, psychical
changes occur that usually concur with increased sexual awareness and
interest. Since sexuality and intimate relations require regulation of emotions,
behaviours and social-communication, guidance in the area of psychosexual
development can also be of importance. Given these challenges, the current
panel will discuss research on interventions that are aimed at guidance for
adolescents with ASD regarding 1) the transition from primary to secondary
school, 2) a positive teacher-pupil relation, 3) social skills for interaction with
peers, and 4) a healthy psychosexual development.

Panel Session
153 - Integrating Human Genetics, Functional
Genomics, and Model Systems to Illuminate the
Etiology of ASD
Session Chair: M. W. State, Psychiatry, UCSF, San Francisco, CA
Gene discovery via next generation sequencing is paramount to
understanding the underlying biology of autism spectrum disorder
(ASD). However, interpretation of genetic variation is confounded by the
heterogeneity of ASD, as well as the difficulty understanding the functional
role of non-coding regions. This panel outlines a paradigm for translating
findings from whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing to testable
hypotheses of ASD neurobiology. In the first talk, recent findings from
whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing studies are presented with
an emphasis on using maps of regulatory regions to interpret non-coding
variation. Next, specific chromatin modifiers, associated with ASD risk via
these DNA sequencing studies, are investigated with ChIP-seq in order
to build regulatory networks that may be perturbed in ASD. The third talk
in this panel uses a novel framework to integrate the data from the first
two talks with gene expression data from the developing human brain in
order to increase our power to detect genes associated with ASD. Finally,
in the fourth talk, we highlight recent efforts to translate genetic findings to
functional biology and pharmacological screening using zebrafish as a model
system.

Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) usually face complex social
challenges in schools. Although placing children with ASD with their typically
developing peers is a common practice in public school settings, inclusion
alone may not be sufficient to increase social ability. Studies of included
children with ASD demonstrate that they have poorer social outcomes
than their typically developing peers, and these differences worsen with

age. Interventions to address social challenges typically occur outside of
school settings and rarely generalize. This symposium will address these
challenges by: a) presenting data from measures of social connectedness
and peer engagement of elementary aged children with ASD and their typical
classmates in public schools; b) exploring the role of age and gender in these
connections; and c) comparing changes in peer engagement in response
to different interventions. These data represent the large multi-site efforts of
researchers engaged in community-based research designed to introduce
effective social skills interventions and testing meaningful social outcome
measures in community settings.
Panel Session
155 - Neuronal Migrational Abnormalities in Autism
Session Chair & Discussant: M. F. Casanova, Psychiatry and
Behavioral Sciences, University of Louisville, Louisville, KY
There are many neuropathological findings in autism spectrum disorder
(ASD). Some of the reported findings can be accounted by either
methodological flaws, the effects of preagonal/agonal conditions, artifacts of
postmortem tissue, or as being secondary to comorbidities. A few findings
remain that by themselves are abnormal and symptomatic, e.g., heterotopias,
cortical malformations (dysplasias). The presence of heterotopias and cortical
dysplasias in ASD suggests abnormalities of germinal cell division and their
subsequent migration to the cortical plate. In this panel we will discuss and
illustrate the available evidence for a neuronal migratory disturbance in
ASD. The lectures will summarize the following findings in the brains of ASD
individuals: 1) Computerized image analysis studies will provide quantitative
evidence of increased neuronal cellularity within the white matter of the brain,
especially the subplate region, 2) Serial sections of whole brain specimens
will detail the presence of heterotopic clusters of cells and cortical dysplasias,
3) Immunocytochemical staining of the cerebral cortex will illustrate
abnormalities of specific interneurons in regards to their location within the
laminae of the cerebral cortex, and 4) We will summarize genetic evidence
for the roles of disturbed neurogenesis and network desynchronization in
autism.

156 - Understanding Early Dyadic Interaction in ASD
Session Chair: K. Hudry, Olga Tennison Autism Research Centre,
Melbourne, Australia
Discussant: M. Siller, Psychology, Hunter College of the City
University of New York, New York, NY
The early emergence of ASD is characterized by progressive difficulties in
social communication. These early emerging symptoms are likely to perturb
the dyadic interactions between caregivers and their children. However,
very little is known about how this process unfolds, and what implications
it may have for a child’s ongoing trajectory of development. For example,
many caregivers may adapt to their child’s communicative style to maximize
a child’s learning opportunities. Identifying the caregiver adaptions that can
promote optimal socio-communicative development in children can thus help
us design more effective parent-mediated interventions for young children
with ASD. In this symposium, we present data that illuminates the effects
of child symptomatology on caregiver-child interactions in the first years of
life. We identify caregiver adaptations and behaviors that may be optimal for
promoting positive socio-communicative trajectories. Finally, we present the
results of a large survey of parents, service providers and individuals with
ASD that illuminates the thoughts of the wider community on research in
early ASD. We will discuss the implications of this work for harnessing the
dynamic interactions that shape the developmental course for individuals with
ASD.

160 - ASD and Sex Offenses: Guidance for the
Criminal Justice System
Room: Envoy
Session Chair: Dr. Laurie Sperry
Co-Chairs: Dr. Rachel Loftin, Dr. Philip O’Donnell, Dr. Alexander
Westphal, Hannah Heyward, Ph.D. candidate
Oftentimes education related to sexual/romantic functioning does not
occur until after an individual with ASD been victimized or has committed a
social error that meets the criteria for a sex offense (Griffiths, 1999). These
behaviors may include undesired touching, public masturbation and other
illegal activity (Hellemans, et al., 2007). Even when problem behaviors are
not illegal or harmful to others, inappropriate sexual behaviors can limit
employment and inclusion opportunities for individuals with ASD
(Sullivan & Caterino, 2008).
One of the biggest challenges in developing appropriate sexuality education
for people with ASD has been bridging the gap between people who
know about sexuality education and people who know about ASD
(Mesibov, 2012). The goal of this interactive panel discussion is to
summarize what is known from published investigations and case studies
of people with ASD through an examination of information about the criminal
justice system, the characteristics and life circumstances of people with
ASD that are implicated. This presentation will provide case examples and
cover the findings from an investigation of a sexuality education curriculum
developed by ASD specialists and Planned Parenthood. Preliminary data will
be presented regarding the psychiatric and behavioral profiles of adolescents
with histories of interpersonal violence, including sexual offending, who have
been admitted to an inpatient psychiatric unit. Practical applications
for community and educational settings will be discussed.

Session Chairs: Dr. Kristelle Hudry and Dr. Giacomo Vivanti
The standard of autism early-intervention research has increased
substantially, allowing us to judge the efficacy of particular therapy models
under optimal delivery conditions. If the field is to have a real impact on
the lives of children with autism and their families, however, we need to
progress our evaluation of the effectiveness of early intervention, conducting
rigorous studies within community-based settings. Such a move brings
significant methodological challenge, and researchers in different parts of
the world will benefit from the opportunity to have for dedicated discussion
on the topic at this new SIG. We will consider existing progress made in
conducting community-based studies of ASD early-intervention, with a focus
on methodological difficulties and successes encountered, and aiming to plan
a strategic way forward for the field.

The theme of the 2015 SIG will be dissemination. The main part of the
meeting will be a chaired expert panel discussion. The multi-disciplinary
panel will be asked to respond to questions submitted in advance by
members of the ASDtech mailing list, permitting a focused discussion,
followed by open comments from the floor. Topics may include:
• Open sourcing: both data and programs, including online
versions of autism clinical and research tools
• Technological solutions for the developing world – cultural
differences in design and application
• Procedural integrity in technology research and practice
• Learning analytics and implementation science:
what lessons are relevant for autism research?
• Expectations of technology: it could be free so it should be free?
Time and resources required to make technology accessible
and to support users
• Challenges of, and guidelines for, bringing technologies
to the market
• Supporting evidence-based ASD interventions to keep pace
with latest innovations
As this will be the closing meeting of the SIG we will also invite specific
suggestions from members about how to build on the work of the SIG,
drawing on existing tools such as the mailing list and international expertise
map and identifying further opportunities for meetings.

164 - Pathways to New Treatments for Autism
Spectrum Disorder
Speaker: Jeremy Veenstra-Vander Weele, Columbia University /
Two main approaches are being pursued to identify new medication
treatments that may benefit children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The
first and most common approach is to evaluate a treatment in the total group
of people affected by ASD, usually with a small number excluded due to
the presence of a known genetic syndrome. This strategy is challenged by
the lack of support for common genetic or environmental risk factors that
contribute substantially to risk in the entire group of children with ASD.
Therefore, treatment studies in the overall group of children with ASD are
largely tied to brain systems and pathways that may modulate social function
or repetitive behavior but that are not necessarily implicated in autism risk.
The second approach is almost the exact opposite, to study a medication
for ASD-related symptoms in a defined genetic syndrome that confers
substantial risk of ASD but comprises <2% of individuals with ASD. Since
animal models are providing an understanding of the underlying neurobiology
that leads to autism-related symptoms in these populations, treatments
targeted the root cause of these syndromes is possible. Transformative
treatments, though possibly not “cures,” seem most likely to emerge from
the second approach, but in a small group of children. In contrast, if the first
approach is successful, we can expect a treatment that benefits a larger
group of children, but likely benefits them less. With emerging knowledge of
brain systems and intersections with genetic data, we can hope for a third
approach that is somewhere in the middle, with a treatment being studied in
a larger subgroup of individuals with ASD that share a common biomarker.
This could result from extension outward from treatments studies in rare
genetic syndromes, or it could result from identification of subgroups that
benefit from treatments studied in ASD as a whole. I will discuss current
challenges and opportunities as we seek new treatments in autism, including
specific examples of each approach.
165 - On the Road to Translational Treatments in
Autism-Related Genetic Syndromes
Session Chair & Discussant: Jeremy Veenstra-Vander Weele / New
York State Psychiatric Institute, Psychiatry, New York, NY
Our understanding of autism risk factors has grown exponentially in the past
few years. Cellular and animal models based upon some of these risk factors
are providing clues to the underlying neurobiology. The most advanced work
has emerged in rare genetic syndromes that often include autism symptoms:
tuberous sclerosis, fragile X, Rett, and Phelan-McDermid syndromes. In each
syndrome, hypothesized neurobiological mechanisms are now being tested
in human treatment studies. This panel will outline insights from specific
studies in these rare syndromes, but it will also provide a perspective on the
pathway from risk factor to mechanism to potential treatment. Presentations
in this panel will highlight (1) candid evaluations of model systems for
dissecting the biology of neurodevelopmental disorders and testing potential
treatments; and (2) perspectives on assessing potential benefits and risks
in the context of developmental change and the placebo effect. These
rare syndromes offer the first opportunity to test treatments based upon an
understanding of neurobiological mechanisms. By finding treatments that
show benefit in these rare syndromes, we may also gain an understanding
of how to develop and test treatments in neurodevelopmental disorders more
broadly. Potentially, some treatments may even benefit a larger subgroup of
children with ASD.

166 - Translational Developmental Research in
Restricted and Repetitive Behaviors: From Basic
Mechanisms to Intervention
Session Chair: C. Harrop, University of California, Los Angeles,
Los Angeles, CA
Discussant: J. W. Bodfish, Vanderbilt Brain Institute, Nashville, TN
Restricted and Repetitive Behaviors (RRBs) are a core symptom of autism
spectrum disorders (ASD) (ICD-10, World Health Organization 1992;
DSM-5, American Psychiatric Association, 2013). While research into this
symptom domain has grown in recent years, considerably less is known
about the function and etiology of RRBs relative to the social-communication
impairments of ASD. This hinders researchers ability to develop effective,
targeted interventions for this core deficit. This panel will address these
issues and present a series of innovative studies with the overarching
goal of providing a comprehensive and translational update on the current
state of the field. The panel brings together talks spanning neuroscience,
early detection and intervention and the use of novel technologies to study
RRBs. Our four panelists will discuss a) the trajectories of RRBs and their
neural correlates in early development, b) explore novel methodologies for
quantifying the presence of RRBs as well as their response to intervention,
and c) the effect of targeted interventions on behavioral changes in RRBs.

168 - Investigating Multiple Components of
Language Development in the Same Children:
The Uconn Early Language Study
Session Chair: L. Naigles, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT
Studies of language in children with ASD usually target just one linguistic
component (e.g., pragmatics, maternal interaction, grammar, word learning,
expressive/receptive language, joint attention, gesture); however, actual
language development/use involves all of these simultaneously. The
UCONN Early Language Study includes a unique dataset in which multiple
components of language were assessed at multiple visits over a 2-year
span, in >30 children with ASD plus >30 TD children who were matched on
language at study onset. This panel presents four different analyses of this
dataset, carried out by different researchers focusing on different language
components in the same children, revealing how language components
interact during development. Included are (1) analyses of the children’s
gestures during mother-child play sessions early in the study, and which
gestures predict speech and language abilities 2 years later; (2) reports
on the general lexical and grammatical growth rates of the children’s
speech over time, and how these rates are influenced by—and reciprocally
influence—the mothers’ speech; (3) analyses of the children’s verb
development, comparing emergence of e.g., action, mental, and social verbs;
(4) data on the children’s comprehension of words and grammar, especially
considering how early comprehension abilities impact later language use.
Cross-paper integration will be highlighted.

SATURDAY – AM
ASD registries and biobanks provide critical support for research and
clinical service development. Different models exist reflecting varied social
and cultural contexts. For example national registries, e.g. in Scandinavian
countries, integrate publicly available health data while elsewhere other
registries have been driven by a specific research agenda, e.g. genetics
research. Important insights have already been obtained from registries
and linking phenotypic data with biological data, can potentiate biomedical
research. However successful registries/ biobanks rely on engagement
by the ASD community and are as much about necessity as are trust,
engagement and ethical considerations. Here we discuss four experiences
of registries/ biobanking. A successful researcher led UK registry, ASD UK
has leveraged engagement with clinical services. A parent advocacy group
for a rare ASD related condition, Phelan McDermid Syndrome, showed
that parents could inspire scientists to research the condition. A national
consultation with ASD Stakeholders in Ireland revealed strong support but
also mistrust that a registry/ biobank could be used prejudicially. In China
a biobank/ registry project will enhance autism awareness and research
but faces huge geographical challenges. We will discuss the challenges
encountered and how social and cultural contexts has been influential in
shaping these initiatives.

169 - You Want Me to Eat What? Novel Treatment
Approaches for Food Selectivity and Feeding
Problems in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Session Chair: E. S. Kuschner, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia,
Philadelphia, PA
Food selectivity and feeding problems are highly prevalent in children with
ASD, yet few empirically supported interventions are available. Behavioral
interventions are widely used in clinical feeding programs and show promise
in preliminary studies; however, these time-intensive treatments are generally
limited to inpatient or day treatment settings and have not been rigorously
examined via randomized clinical trials. This symposium will present current
efforts in the field aimed at establishing evidence-based treatments for the
heterogeneous array of food selectivity and feeding problems in ASD. Three
novel treatments at different stages of rigorous intervention development and
evaluation will be presented: Autism MEAL Plan, Parent Training Program for
Feeding Problems, and the BUFFET Program. These programs aim to bring
feeding treatments to an outpatient setting and incorporate novel treatment
components, including greater parental involvement, closer collaboration
across disciplines (behavior specialists and nutrition experts), utilization of
a group therapy model, and cognitive behavioral strategies tailored for older
and cognitively higher functioning individuals. A final presentation will discuss
co-occurring factors (i.e., obesity and physical activity) that may be key
mediators or moderators to treatment response and merit consideration for
integration into feeding treatment programs.

GENERAL INFORMATION
IMFAR Annual Meeting – International Meeting for
Autism Research
The year 2015 marks the 14th International Meeting for Autism Research
(IMFAR). The IMFAR Annual Meeting was convened for the first time in
November 2001, to provide ASD researchers from around the world with a
focused opportunity to share the rapidly moving scientific investigation of ASD.
Until that meeting, ASD researchers competed with many other groups for
the opportunity to share their work at large scientific meetings that covered
a wide range of topics. While other meetings provided some opportunity to
share high quality ASD research, none of them focused specifically on ASD.
Funding for ASD research has increased steadily, highlighted by the emergence
of private foundations, such as Autism Speaks and several NIH initiatives: The
Autism Centers for Excellence (ACE), which replaces earlier NIH programs –
The Collaborative Programs of Excellence in Autism (CPEA) and the Studies to
Advance Autism Research and Treatment (STAART) network program. Stimulating
more scientific progress in understanding ASD requires dedicated yearly venue
for ASD researchers to share their findings and their resources.
Scientific progress in ASD also requires the continuous development of new
scientists, from many disciplines. Scientific progress in ASD is dependent upon
increasing the number and expertise of scientists working in this ASD from
the wide array of the biological and behavioral sciences. Given the complex
biological and behavioral nature of ASD, interdisciplinary training and ongoing
mentoring of new scientists and promising graduate students is necessary to
recruit talented young people in ASD research. We want to provide them with
the motivation and mentoring needed to focus a career on ASD and related
developmental disorders. Having an annual interdisciplinary meeting focused on
scientific progress in understanding and treating ASD provides an unparalleled
opportunity for recognizing, supporting, and motivating talented graduate
students and postdoctoral fellows into a career in ASD research.
Objectives of the Meeting
1. The International Meeting for Autism Research (IMFAR) is an annual scientific
meeting, convened each spring, to exchange and disseminate new scientific
progress among ASD scientists and their trainees from around the world.
The first and primary aim of the meeting is to promote exchange and
dissemination of the latest scientific findings and to stimulate research
progress in understanding the nature, causes, and treatments for ASD.
2. Research on ASD involves sophisticated behavioral and biological
approaches. ASD affects people’s functioning in virtually every domain,
requiring interdisciplinary research collaboration to gain comprehensive
knowledge of the disorder. A second aim of the meeting is to foster dialogue
among ASD scientists across disciplines and across methods.
3. The third aim is to promote the training and development of new ASD
scientists by supporting the inclusion of postdoctoral and predoctoral
trainees as well as junior faculty who are already working in ASD research.
The opportunity for trainees and junior faculty to interact with established ASD
scientists will foster the creativity and productivity of those at all levels.
4. The fourth aim is to foster diversity among ASD scientists by encouraging
attendance and supporting access to the meeting for scientists and trainees
from members of traditionally underrepresented groups, including those from
ethnic minority groups, and those with disabilities.
